Re: Plugin Proposal - Disabling Sandman - Vlambo - 03-12-2009
I voted yes, but I believe, like said before, you should only put it on #1.

Yes on #1, no on #3, fuckduck can do as he pleases. Considering it's a goofoff server though, I'd say no on #2.

Savage raised some good points, even though he has fun being Ken Griefey Jr., so he can pl0x diaf. I'm with him.
With the other classes, the approach Valve took - as they said in their blog - was to find a weak point of a class, and give them an upgrade that would mitigate the weakness, taxing other skills that were formerly strong.
Heavy - pretty bad at killing scouts, gets Natascha so he can kill scouts, suffers consequences in other areas.
Pyro - was pretty suicidal to ambush a large enemy force, got BB Q_Q, can now survive a well-placed ambush and can even do well.
...
Scout - was pretty good at harassment and evasion, got even better at harassment and evasion. WTF.
Re: Plugin Proposal - Disabling Sandman - ZargonX - 03-12-2009
I would vote to get rid of it on #1 only. Other than that, I'd just be echoing what most of the rest of you have said...
Re: Plugin Proposal - Disabling Sandman - backfire - 03-12-2009
Please, for all that is good and holy. Ban the sandman. At least from #1.
Valve was trying to be clever with the scout unlockable. In my opinion, they would have been better off giving the scout a melee weapon that does more damage with a slower swing speed, like a maul for something. I'm tired of getting two crits on soldier, yet they still have enough life to take another two blows before aiming down and turning me into a mess on the floor... and then walk away from it.

I generally believe that a game should be left as it is for the most part; you don't have to love it or even like it, but things such as the Sandman are another part of the game and that they should stay.

I've never been a fan of restricting certain aspects of the game unless they are completely broken. There are a few things that definitely need to be fixed (stunning ubers and point blank stuns have got to go) but I don't think it is bad enough to warrant a ban until Valve addresses it which I would hope they are in the process of doing.

Re: Plugin Proposal - Disabling Sandman - Fail Medic - 03-12-2009
Stunned while uber is bullshit. I support a Sandman ban on at least one server until Valve does a rework.
Re: Plugin Proposal - Disabling Sandman - Wedge - 03-12-2009
I'm sure Valve will fix it, but until then, get it the fuck off #1.
Re: Plugin Proposal - Disabling Sandman - Benito Mussolini - 03-12-2009
You guys are not very tolerant.
I vote NO.
You guys realise that the weapon makes it impossible to double jump, right? You all know the average pub player can't do shit without double jumps.

It's not a joke either, because the average pub player using Scout never played the class until this thing came out.

The average pub player -can- do something with a 6 second long stun from medium range. See also: Kill your ass with a stupidly borked weapon. They're too stupid to use double jump correctly, but not too stupid to press mouse 1 a few times.
